Gourmet Banana Nut Bread Recipe

Homemade, moist banana bread, with just the right amount of nuts is just about the best breakfast or afternoon snack that you can possibly imagine. It’s so easy to make too!

I have a separate stomach for banana bread consumption. This time of year especially, when it’s chilly outside, I crave it more! If a warm slice of super moist banana bread – loaded with walnuts (and maybe some chocolate chips too) – doesn’t make your stomach happy, I envy you.

Given my obsession with this bread, you can imagine I’ve gotten the recipe down to a science. I have one recommendation for you: make one loaf per person. Wink.

I love having a slice with my breakfast or as a little pick-me-up in the afternoon. Sometimes my family even eats it for dessert – just heat it up for 10 seconds in the microwave and serve it with vanilla ice cream. SO yummy!

If you don’t have sour cream, you can substitute with greek yogurt. Sometimes I will mash my bananas separately and add them into the mixture. Very ripe bananas work best – they need to be soft with at least some black because they make the bread moist and more flavorful.
